The bike slowed, almost to a stop, as Kane’s voice took on a gravelly tone and said, “Behave, Allie.”
I could feel my arousal growing as the vibrations of the engine rattled between my legs. I wanted him… right then and there. Brazenly, I again ran my hand more firmly over his hardening bulge and called, “Kane?”
“We’re almost there,” he growled.
As we made our way to the clubhouse, the rain suddenly broke free from the clouds. The storm was really setting in, and the tiny pellets of water had begun to sting against my skin as his bike tore down the road. Even with the lightning and pouring rain, my mind stayed focused on only one thought… Kane. I had never felt so much desire for a man, and I was having a hard time restraining myself. My hands roamed across his newly soaked shirt as I pressed my body against him.
“Allie,” he warned as his hips shifted slightly in his seat. I knew I should have stopped. I knew it was already difficult for him to drive in the downpour, but I couldn’t resist… I wanted him too much. Without warning, his bike veered from the road and down a grassy path toward an enormous oak tree. We skidded to a stop as the rain continued to pour down in sheets around us. He got off the bike and turned to face me, his eyes filled with intensity. “Off,” he commanded. “Now.”

Chapter 10
Guardrail
‡
I watched as she slowly took off her helmet, uncertainty etched in her eyes as she looked to me. Then, warily, she climbed off my bike and carefully placed the helmet back on the seat before turning toward me.
“Allie,” I said firmly. She didn’t reply. I could tell that I had caught her off guard with my tone. She stood quietly, staring at me apprehensively as she waited to be reprimanded.
“Allie, do you know how dangerous it was to be messing around on the bike like that?”
Still she didn’t answer. Instead, her head lowered as she looked up at me through her lashes and gave a small nod. Her hands began nervously twisting the water from the bottom of her shirt. It was obvious she knew she’d crossed the line.
“Come here,” I said firmly. Her eyes locked on mine in surprise, unsure of what to expect, but she didn’t move.
“Kane, I’m sorry…” she began. “I just got carried away. I wasn’t thinking….”
“Allie. Come. Here,” I demanded again. Slowly, she began to move closer to me. With each step, I could feel the desire I’d restrained on the bike returning. Her hands’ anxious squirming had pulled her soaking t-shirt tight against her perfect tits. As she approached, my eyes locked on her rigid nipples peeking through the thin fabric, and I felt the last bit of my self-control dissolve.
“Kane, I…” she started. Her words halted as I quickly closed the distance between us and took her in my arms. All uncertainty on her face immediately melted away and was replaced by a mischievous smile. “Oh,” she finished as she bit her bottom lip seductively and looked up at me. Her eyes were full of expectation as they roamed down to my mouth. She licked her lips in anticipation and pressed her body harder against mine.
“Mmm, damn it, woman. What am I going to do with you?” I groaned as she brought her face up to mine.
I could feel her warm breath on my cheek as she whispered, “Oh, I can think of a few things.” My hand slid up her wet shirt to the smooth skin of her neck as my lips found hers. Her sweet, full mouth pressed unrestrained against mine, matching my need, and begging me for more. A soft moan escaped her as my tongue swept across her lips, compelling them to open. My tongue surged into her mouth, winding with hers in a rush of passion that I couldn’t refuse. My arms wrapped around her body and lifted her from the ground as I backed her against the massive oak tree. The rain that had been coming in cascades was slowed by the branches. Water trickled down through the leaves and fell upon her body. I continued to kiss and nip along her neck, tasting the mingled flavors of her salty, sweet skin and the cool rain.
Her eyes fixated on me as I began to remove my wet clothes. “Get undressed,” I demanded as I yanked my t-shirt over my head and tossed it to the ground. Never losing her mischievous smile, she slowly inched her wet jeans down her long legs, taunting me with what she had hidden beneath them. I was beginning to lose my patience as I watched her fingers reach for the hem of her shirt, pulling it ever so slowly over her head.
“Allie…” I scolded. She quickly removed her bra and panties, tossing them to the side. Her eyes danced with desire as I looked appraisingly at her beautiful, naked body.
Goosebumps prickled across her flesh as the coolness of the rain flowed down her bare skin. She tilted her head back, exposing the curves of her neck, and I watched in fascination as the droplets of water glided down her full breasts. Slowly, I moved my hand up and down her slick side, my fingers brushing against her breasts down to her hip. I pulled her closer as I let my tongue run over her soft lips, parting them slightly. She groaned in pleasure as my hand found its way between her legs. I parted her pussy with the tip of my finger, moving it up and down her wet clit.
She shifted her leg to the side as I thrust two fingers deep inside her.
“Still questioning how good I am with my hands, All-Star?”
Her eyes were full of expectation as they roamed down to my mouth. She licked her lips in anticipation and pressed her body harder against mine. When I reached her stomach, I dropped to my knees, settling between her legs. I slowly ran my tongue across her clit as I continued to fuck her with my fingers.
“Mine,” I told her as her hands tangled into my hair, burying my head closer against her. As I tormented her with my tongue, she threw her head back and cried out in ecstasy.
“Kane! Oh God, I’m coming…. Don’t stop!”
I wrapped my mouth around her clit, pressing firmly as I moved my fingers inside her. Her hips jolted against me as I tortured her with my mouth, her body clenching firmly around my fingers as she came. I slowly began to stand as I flicked my fingers inside her, her entire body tensing with her release. I removed my fingers and placed my hands on her hips as I turned her around to face the tree. She rested the palms of her hands against the wet bark as my throbbing cock pressed against her.
“You want me, baby? Riding on my bike got you all worked up, and you couldn’t wait to feel me inside you again?” I asked, taunting her.
“Yes… please, Kane.”
“You better hold on. I’m going to fuck you. Hard. I’m gonna give your body exactly what it needs,” I told her as I unfastened my belt and tugged the wet denim down past my hips. I paused only long enough to put on a condom before my fingers dug into her and I slid my cock deep inside her. I held her hips, grinding them into mine as I pulled back and drove inside her again. She braced her hands against the tree as I fucked her with everything I had.
“Yes!” she whimpered as I drove into her harder with each and every thrust, our bodies slamming into each other. She felt so damn good wrapped around my cock. It was making it hard to restrain myself. My hand reached for her hair, pulling her head back towards me so I could kiss and suck along her neck. My rhythm increased as my need to climax began to overtake me. Her body began to spasm around me, signaling that she was about to lose all control. With my free hand, I reached down to her core, pressing firmly as I circled my fingers around her clit. She tilted her ass towards me, grinding harder against my cock as I continued to thrust forcefully into her. Her body began to tremble as her orgasm took hold, her muscles contracting around me and pulling me deeper. My growl echoed around us as my entire body tensed and I came inside her.
She leaned back, resting against my chest and turned her head to look at me. With a sexy smile she said, “That was amazing.”
I laughed as I wrapped my arms around her waist and said, “We’ve got to get going, baby.” We quickly put on our wet clothes and hopped back on my bike. The storm was still raging as we made our way to the clubhouse. In an effort to avoid the attention of my brothers, I went through the gate and headed to
the back entrance. With trepidation, she followed me in through the back door. I took her hand and squeezed it reassuringly as I led her down the hallway to my room.
“Baby, you go take a hot shower, and I’ll go get you some dry clothes. I’m sure one of the girls has something you can wear for tonight.”
“Okay,” she said. “Thanks.”
By the time I got back to the room, she was already out of the shower. I gave her the clothes Cassidy had found for her and waited for her to get changed.
After she pulled her hair up into a messy bun, she turned to me and said, “I guess I’m ready.”
“You look great. Always do, baby,” I told her as I took her hand and led her out to the bar. I could tell she was getting a little nervous, so I pulled her close to me, guiding her to the front door. The music was blaring, and most of the guys were already sitting around having a beer. I led Allie over to Cassidy and introduced her.
“Cass, this is Allie,” I told her. “Mind grabbing us a beer?”
“Hey. It’s nice to meet you, and thanks for the clothes,” Allie told her.
“No problem. They look great on you,” she said, smiling as she handed Allie a beer. She leaned over the counter, glancing over at the outfit she let her borrow and said, “Looks like we’re about the same size.”
It didn’t take long for them to hit it off, and Allie no longer seemed nervous. Hell, she was actually enjoying herself. When I looked down at the other end of the bar, I noticed Cotton giving me a disapproving look.
“I’ll be right back,” I told Allie as I stood up and headed towards Cotton.
When I approached him, he said, “What the hell are you thinking bring her here, Kane? You’re supposed to use her for intel… nothing more.”
This wasn’t the way I wanted this to play out. I wanted to have the chance to discuss things with him first, but Tony had eliminated that option.
“She’s under my protection. Things have changed. Tony has become an immediate threat.”
“Her brother betrayed the club!” he snapped.
“She had nothing to do with that, and you know it!” I growled.
“It isn’t right, Kane. She has no business being here.”
“She’s with me. I’m claiming her as mine…..”
“You better be sure about this, brother,” he said as he glared at me. I looked over to Allie at the other end of the bar. She was talking with Cassidy, and they were laughing at something Boozer had just said. It didn’t surprise me. The girls were always giggling over something Boozer had said or done. He was what people might call a true southern gentleman, and the women around here didn’t always know what to make of his proper manners and country sayings. I was pleased that Allie was enjoying herself. I hadn’t been sure how she would fit in, but from the looks of it, she was doing just fine.
“No doubt in my mind, Cotton. She means something to me, and there’s no way I’m letting her go.”
He shook his head, but I could see that he respected my decision. He knew I wouldn’t make a move like this unless I was certain. I’d never been a man that let a woman sway him in any way, and I wasn’t about to start now.
“What do you think Tony is up to? There’s got to be a reason he’s looking for another twenty-five grand,” he asked.
“I don’t know, but I don’t have a good feeling about it. I have no doubt that he’s up to something… big.”
“I made the contacts we discussed. Made sure the girl didn’t get a loan.”
“Thanks, Pres. I didn’t want to see her get in any deeper than she already is,” I told him.
“How are you going to make sure she doesn’t get the money from somewhere else?” he asked.
“There is nowhere else for her to get it. She doesn’t have any family, so she is out of options.”
“What’s your next move?” he questioned.
“When he contacts her again, I’ll get him. I’m done messing around with this asshole.”
“Make sure that you do. I’m counting on you, Kane. I want Tony six feet under,” he told me as he finished off his beer. He motioned over to Cassidy and said, “Need another one, Red.”
“Sure thing, darling.”
Looking back over to me, he said, “If you’re planning to claim her, you better act fast. The brothers are getting antsy.” He motioned his head to several of the guys playing pool in the corner, and their eyes were all focused on Allie. Possessiveness bolted through me as I thought about them trying their hands at her. I jumped from my seat and headed straight for her. Our eyes met before I even came close, drawing her full attention to me.
“Is something wrong?” she asked as I stopped in front of her.
I didn’t answer. I reached for her hand and pulled her close to me. My eyes were drawn to her full, round lips, fueling my need to kiss her. I needed her mouth on mine… to feel her perfect body pressed against me. It was like she read my mind as her hands reached for the back of my neck, pulling my mouth down to hers. Her lips ground into mine as the kiss became more urgent and filled with need. What had started out as my visible claim to Allie had quickly turned into something more. My dick was growing hard, and I had to fight the urge to throw her over my shoulder and carry her to my room. A slight moan escaped her lips as I thrust my hips into hers, and I was just about to lose the last of my restraint when she slowly began to pull back. She rested her hands on my chest, and then looked at me with a sexy smile on her face.
“Umm… I think they got the hint,” she said with a smirk.
“Who?” My girl was clever. She knew exactly what I was up to, and I loved that she didn’t resist me staking my claim.
“Your brothers… I think they got it,” she giggled as she looked over in their direction.
“I don’t do hints, Allie. They know that. If there was any question about who you belonged to, they all know now. You’re mine… all of you,” I told her as I rested my hands on her ass.
“Damn straight,” she smirked.
“Just let me know if any of them give you any trouble.”
“They’ll be fine. Everyone has been really nice. I like it here,” she told me.
“You’re always full of surprises, All-Star,” I told her as I kissed her one last time. “I’m going to go grab another beer.” When I turned back to the bar, I saw Maverick sitting on the end stool drinking bourbon. I knew then that something was on his mind. He never drank hard liquor unless something was bothering him. I walked over to him, and he never even looked up as I sat down.
“I can’t find her,” he said just above a whisper. “I’ve checked with everyone that knows her.”
“She’ll turn up, Maverick. She always does.”
“This time is different, and you know it. She stuck a fucking knife in my back, Kane,” he said as he poured himself another drink. “Talked to her dad last night. He said that she came to him asking for money, too. You know… I can’t help but think this is all my fault.”
“What are you talking about, Maverick? None of this is your fault.”
“I should’ve tried to help her. Made her go to rehab or something.”
“You did help her, brother. All the time. She was just in too deep. There was nothing you could do,” I tried to explain. “There’s nothing you can do to help her now. You know that, right? She betrayed the club, and….”
“Don’t… don’t. I know,” he said as he swallowed another shot of whiskey.
“What can I do?” I asked.
“Nothing to do, Kane. Not a damn thing.” He was pouring himself another drink when Big Mike walked over to us.
“Just got a call from Nitro. Things just got real interesting, brother,” he said as he sat down beside me.
“Tell me.” Knowing that Nitro was our arms dealer, I knew it meant trouble.
“Seems Tony just made contact with him. He’s trying to get his hands on a large shipment of weapons. Offered him seventy-five grand. Don’t know all the details yet, but I don’t have
a good feeling, brother,” Big Mike told me. “Serious, trouble.”

Chapter 11
Allie
‡
“So how long you known Guardrail?” Dallas asked as she sat down at the bar next to me. Kane had explained earlier that she was Skidrow’s Old Lady, and I was grateful that she had made it her mission to put me at ease tonight. She was easy to talk to, and I loved how her short blonde hair framed her round cheeks, enhancing her dark black eyeliner and bright blue eyeshadow. She wore a black leather mini-skirt that showed off her amazing figure. I might have been a little intimidated by her if I didn’t like her so much. I can’t remember I time where I laughed so much. The woman didn’t have a filter and said exactly what was on her mind… with no reservations whatsoever.
“Not long I guess.”
“He’s an interesting one. Always seems so fucking intense,” she said as she stirred her drink. “Like he’s got the world resting on those shoulders of his.”
“Yeah, intense is a good word for it.”
“I bet he’s great in the sack. All that pent up aggression…. Hell, I bet that man can do things….”
“You have no idea,” I interrupted. “I love it, though. I actually love everything about him.”
“Glad you two have hit it off. Guardrail’s needed a good woman in his life. I’m glad he’s finally found one that can keep up.”
“I don’t know about that. I’m still figuring everything out.”
“Has he told you how things work around here?” she asked.
“What do you mean?”
“You know… the basics? Has he told you what it means to be a part of the club?” she asked with concern.
“He hasn’t really said much. We haven’t had much time to talk about things,” I explained.
“There’s stuff you need to know if you’re going to be an old lady, Allie. Certain expectations that go along with being with one of the brothers.”
